Hi. I've been around 3FC for a looooong time. In the past I mostly did WW and then went through a time with Jenny Craig. Anyway, w/o getting into all of that, I'm now going to give SBD a try. I've bought the book. I'm reading it now. I have a question:
In Phase I, 14 days of menus are given. Are these just guidelines or can I follow them loosely? I don't have all the groceries I need to start off with Day 1. So for example, this morning, I made an omelette (2 eggs) w/2% low fat cheese, drank tomato juice along with it. For my morning snack I did happen to have 2% low fat string cheese in the house so I ate that. I'm heading out to McDonald's for lunch and I plan on ordering the grilled chicken caesar salad. Will that be okay to eat? I know I can't eat carrots so if there are any on it they have to be put to the side. On my way home from work I plan on buying groceries...
So. Do I have to follow the 14 days of menus or can I just make up my own?
Thanks!
Gail
